Commonwealth Avenue Improvement Project

In most places, the bike lanes will be wide enough for a faster bicyclist to pass a slower one, except for when the bike lanes dip behind bus stops. The design intentionally forces bikes to go single-file through there for the sake of pedestrian safety.
Cool, didn't realize they narrowed specifically at the bus stops. That is indeed a good design.

The concrete barriers for the new consolidated stops on the B Line are nearly done. The new St. Paul/ BU West barriers look finished and the Babcock/Pleasant barriers are almost there. No work on the platforms yet but this looks like the first step, separating the roadway from the eventual waiting space. The barriers are nicer looking than the Jersey barriers at the current stops and have post holes for eventual high fencing.
